Why don't Irish phone providers sell LG phones?

Andy Magic · 2017-11-14 10:57:18

I'm looking at buying the LG Q6 but I can't find it on bill pay anywhere. Does anyone know of a network provider that might sell them? I've tried all the usual providers..

The carriers do deals with manufacturers to supply phones in bulk. Clearly they haven't done a deal with LG.

Just buy the phone yourself and use PAYG, contracts are very often a false economy.

LG are an asian brand and dont see much traction over here. Lots of models are SK release only.

When you're so small its not worth pushing the foreign market until you've saturated the local ones.
